Anaheim Ducks vs Calgary Flames Prediction

The Anaheim Ducks have quietly won three straight games and have cashed some nice underdog tickets in the process. However, I still need more convincing before I can back the Ducks, especially on the road. The Calgary Flames are still the better team by a decent margin, and they’ve seen 15 of their 24 wins come on their home ice. The Flames already beat the Ducks this month, and they’ve won eight of the last 10 games against them overall. We know the Ducks go in a hole offensively more times than not, and they’re kind of due after the week they just had. Give me the Flames on Thursday night and of course I’ll lay the PL to shave down the price. Five of the Flame’s eight wins over the Ducks were decided by two or more goals.
